One of the three current gen consoles, sure. Do you have to eat a hat?

How about 1.5?

Yeah, they really had nothing to push there hardware.

Especially the 3DS at least the WiiU had a good bundle.

I thought the Splatoon/Smash bundle would push the hardware more.

It may have, moved Wii U sales from being next to Dinosaur bones to being next to coffins

January-October was a fluke.

So october was just an outlier month.

Problem is: October will be lost as a strong month forever.
Pre-season is growing.
Sales concentrate now on Nov and Dec at high discounts.
Let's be happy tonight, but is this really healthy?

Never doubt the console that is being backed by Lord MAU.

lightning2k3 · Dec 10, 2015

Nintendo lost because they don't have a functioning online accounting system and therefore not enough MAUs

RexNovis · Dec 10, 2015

Man U revised my predictions down ~150k for both PS4 and XB1 after hearing George's reasoning behind his predictions. Whelp there goes any chance I had of hitting top 10 this year (T-T)

Banjo-Kazooie · Dec 10, 2015

But the real question is how much engagement was there on Xbox One???

Y2Kev · Dec 10, 2015

Throw open the doors to MAU

Were they not at 18 million before that or in that range?

idlewild_ · Dec 10, 2015

Toki767 said:
It's either that or Wii U finally sold close to PS4 and Xbox One.

Well, Cosmic said that our aggregates for XB1 and PS4 were conservative while the Wii U one was aggressive. Our aggregates already had the two outselling the Wii U by more than 2x. So...yeah, lol

shandy706 · Dec 10, 2015

If they both sold over 1.2 MILLION...holy crap. That's a lot isn't it?

Sounds like Microsoft AND Sony won!

I hope the Wii U saw a boost.

How about our little Vita.....are they even tracking it anymore????

Y2Kev · Dec 10, 2015

Sony should close down their first party studios

We better. I want to know how many hours were spent trying to find out how to redeem codes.

I was thinking that those giftcards that MS was handing out would swing the sales momentum in the XB1's favour.

But maybe that will manifest in December NPD results.

No it won't.

C'mon people, it was almost sure win bet XD.

PS4+XB1 > 2.25 million then

Yea.

Consumers over the past several years have been conditioned to flock to big sales events, most of which are in the final 2 months of the year.

I imagine Nov. and Dec. will regularly see record sales over the course of this gen.

Welfare · Dec 10, 2015

Looking good so far.

Will make up for the bad performance last month.

Those are some incredible numbers if true. Good job Sony/MS.

Yep, If I am not mistaken the best November to date for Sony and Microsoft combined is 2011 (306 - 1.7M+PS3 - .9M) at ~2.6 million units.

I'd like one for how many hours it takes Gamespot to find settings.

EventHorizon · Dec 10, 2015

Awwww... !@#$. I let NDP_Mulcair talk me into lower numbers. Thankfully I stuck to my guns at on the PS4 side. I knew November was going to be BIG. I need to stick with my gut next time. Live and learn.

Amazing comeback for Sony.

They got blown out the water last year, by like ~600K.

Boke1879 · Dec 10, 2015

With SOny and MS dropping their prices again. They should see good sales this December as well.
